Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg @ Montreal November 7, 2026

We need Brown in the second half or we don't have a chance

[Blue In BC]

Gotta throw a bomb to a one on one and hope for a PI

Taking a knee is stupid

It's defeatist that's for sure. No fire.

THat..is a suit..Lapo. 

[Tecno]

Well, we're doing better than we did in the '25 ESF, so that's something to build on.  D is playing MUCH better than last year.  O is probably worse, though.  Gotta make the change, at least to see if it's QB or OL/RECs.  Can't do worse than a drive for zero points.  Well, I guess Dru could throw 10 INTs.  That would suck.

But we clearly aren't going to win waiting for D and ST to save us with scores or 40YL starting field position.

Winnable game.  Go out and take it!!

[Horseman]

If Davis Alexander wants to continue to try and throw a block after handing the ball off, the D needs to unload on him and be the hammer on Alexander and not the nail. A couple of good hits and Alexander will stop that.

We won in 2025 I believe without him.

We may have a better chance with him this year playing this way..but there is always a chance.

Don't give him goals. I'd like to see him in the second half.  We need a sparkplug.

[Tecno]

So who won the toss?  If we deferred, then do we elect to give MTL the ball again in the 3rd Q?  Is the wind really that much of a factor today?  Is it dying down?

MTL has no trouble throwing 50Y into any direction.

I really do hate it when we give an opponent the ball to start both halves though for some mythical wind advantage that only helps once we're already down 25 pts.

We lost the '25 ESF.  Ended our season.  Came back and looked good late until Brady fumbled it and sealed our fate.

[bomb squad]

Just kneel it and bring out Dru for the 2nd half

What, did somebody slip something in your drink??

[Sway]

I guess we are going down with the Zach ship

[bludan]

I'm in complete agreement..I think the the only way this happens if Zach says he can't play.

[JockitchwithRich]

Need takeaways and better pressure while our offence has to be successful over and over and over again

[barbk]

Tecno I guess your happy you didn't waste money/time going to Montreal?

Meh, always fun in MTL!  But ya, I can probably do without double the PTSD.  Besides, I'm saving up all my wife-brownie-points to go to CGY should we win today!!

I'm a lot more relaxed sitting here at home, that's for sure!
